When Jeff Bezos walked away as Amazon’s CEO, he didn’t leave with just a smile and a thank-you. He left with a warning. And if you read it carefully, it’s not just for Amazon employees—it’s for you. “The world wants you to be typical – in a thousand ways, it...
What Happened Recently A big fight has broken out over the Indus Waters Treaty, a water-sharing agreement signed in 1960 between India and Pakistan.
